avenging

Luke Chapter 18:1

And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;

Luke Chapter 18:2

Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man:

Luke Chapter 18:3

And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary.

Luke Chapter 18:4

And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man;

Luke Chapter 18:5

Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.

Luke Chapter 18:6

And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith.

Luke Chapter 18:7

And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them?

Luke Chapter 18:8

I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?

Luke Chapter 18:9

And he spake this parable unto certain which trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others:

Luke Chapter 18:10

Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican.

Luke Chapter 18:11

The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.

Luke Chapter 18:12

I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess.

Luke Chapter 18:13

And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner.

Luke Chapter 18:14

I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.

Luke Chapter 18:15

And they brought unto him also infants, that he would touch them: but when his disciples saw it, they rebuked them.

Luke Chapter 18:16

But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.

Luke Chapter 18:17

Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein.

Luke Chapter 18:18

And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?

Luke Chapter 18:19

And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good, save one, that is, God.

Luke Chapter 18:20

Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Honour thy father and thy mother.

Luke Chapter 18:21

And he said, All these have I kept from my youth up.

Luke Chapter 18:22

Now when Jesus heard these things, he said unto him, Yet lackest thou one thing: sell all that thou hast, and distribute unto the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me.

Luke Chapter 18:23

And when he heard this, he was very sorrowful: for he was very rich.

Luke Chapter 18:24

And when Jesus saw that he was very sorrowful, he said, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!

Luke Chapter 18:25

For it is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

Luke Chapter 18:26

And they that heard it said, Who then can be saved?

Luke Chapter 18:27

And he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.

Luke Chapter 18:28

Then Peter said, Lo, we have left all, and followed thee.

Luke Chapter 18:29

And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or parents, or brethren, or wife, or children, for the kingdom of God's sake,

Luke Chapter 18:30

Who shall not receive manifold more in this present time, and in the world to come life everlasting.

Luke Chapter 18:31

Then he took unto him the twelve, and said unto them, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and all things that are written by the prophets concerning the Son of man shall be accomplished.

Luke Chapter 18:32

For he shall be delivered unto the Gentiles, and shall be mocked, and spitefully entreated, and spitted on:

Luke Chapter 18:33

And they shall scourge him, and put him to death: and the third day he shall rise again.

Luke Chapter 18:34

And they understood none of these things: and this saying was hid from them, neither knew they the things which were spoken.

Luke Chapter 18:35

And it came to pass, that as he was come nigh unto Jericho, a certain blind man sat by the way side begging:

Luke Chapter 18:36

And hearing the multitude pass by, he asked what it meant.

Luke Chapter 18:37

And they told him, that Jesus of Nazareth passeth by.

Luke Chapter 18:38

And he cried, saying, Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy on me.

Luke Chapter 18:39

And they which went before rebuked him, that he should hold his peace: but he cried so much the more, Thou Son of David, have mercy on me.

Luke Chapter 18:40

And Jesus stood, and commanded him to be brought unto him: and when he was come near, he asked him,

Luke Chapter 18:41

Saying, What wilt thou that I shall do unto thee? And he said, Lord, that I may receive my sight.

Luke Chapter 18:42

And Jesus said unto him, Receive thy sight: thy faith hath saved thee.

Luke Chapter 18:43

And immediately he received his sight, and followed him, glorifying God: and all the people, when they saw it, gave praise unto God.

Luke Chapter 19:1

And Jesus entered and passed through Jericho.

Luke Chapter 19:2

And, behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus, which was the chief among the publicans, and he was rich.

Luke Chapter 19:3

And he sought to see Jesus who he was; and could not for the press, because he was little of stature.

Luke Chapter 19:4

And he ran before, and climbed up into a sycomore tree to see him: for he was to pass that way.

Luke Chapter 19:5

And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up, and saw him, and said unto him, Zacchaeus, make haste, and come down; for to day I must abide at thy house.

Luke Chapter 19:6

And he made haste, and came down, and received him joyfully.

Luke Chapter 19:7

And when they saw it, they all murmured, saying, That he was gone to be guest with a man that is a sinner.

Luke Chapter 19:8

And Zacchaeus stood, and said unto the Lord; Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken any thing from any man by false accusation, I restore him fourfold.

Luke Chapter 19:9

And Jesus said unto him, This day is salvation come to this house, forsomuch as he also is a son of Abraham.

Luke Chapter 19:10

For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.

Luke Chapter 19:11

And as they heard these things, he added and spake a parable, because he was nigh to Jerusalem, and because they thought that the kingdom of God should immediately appear.

Luke Chapter 19:12

He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.

Luke Chapter 19:13

And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come.

Luke Chapter 19:14

But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him, saying, We will not have this man to reign over us.

Luke Chapter 19:15

And it came to pass, that when he was returned, having received the kingdom, then he commanded these servants to be called unto him, to whom he had given the money, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading.

Luke Chapter 19:16

Then came the first, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained ten pounds.

Luke Chapter 19:17

And he said unto him, Well, thou good servant: because thou hast been faithful in a very little, have thou authority over ten cities.

Luke Chapter 19:18

And the second came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained five pounds.

Luke Chapter 19:19

And he said likewise to him, Be thou also over five cities.

Luke Chapter 19:20

And another came, saying, Lord, behold, here is thy pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin:

Luke Chapter 19:21

For I feared thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest up that thou layedst not down, and reapest that thou didst not sow.

Luke Chapter 19:22

And he saith unto him, Out of thine own mouth will I judge thee, thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking up that I laid not down, and reaping that I did not sow:

Luke Chapter 19:23

Wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury?

Luke Chapter 19:24

And he said unto them that stood by, Take from him the pound, and give it to him that hath ten pounds.

Luke Chapter 19:25

And they said unto him, Lord, he hath ten pounds.)

Luke Chapter 19:26

For I say unto you, That unto every one which hath shall be given; and from him that hath not, even that he hath shall be taken away from him.

Luke Chapter 19:27

But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me.

Luke Chapter 19:28

And when he had thus spoken, he went before, ascending up to Jerusalem.

Luke Chapter 19:29

And it came to pass, when he was come nigh to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount called the mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,

Luke Chapter 19:30

Saying, Go ye into the village over against you; in the which at your entering ye shall find a colt tied, whereon yet never man sat: loose him, and bring him hither.

Luke Chapter 19:31

And if any man ask you, Why do ye loose him? thus shall ye say unto him, Because the Lord hath need of him.

Luke Chapter 19:32

And they that were sent went their way, and found even as he had said unto them.

Luke Chapter 19:33

And as they were loosing the colt, the owners thereof said unto them, Why loose ye the colt?

Luke Chapter 19:34

And they said, The Lord hath need of him.

Luke Chapter 19:35

And they brought him to Jesus: and they cast their garments upon the colt, and they set Jesus thereon.

Luke Chapter 19:36

And as he went, they spread their clothes in the way.

Luke Chapter 19:37

And when he was come nigh, even now at the descent of the mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen;

Luke Chapter 19:38

Saying, Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.

Luke Chapter 19:39

And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto him, Master, rebuke thy disciples.

Luke Chapter 19:40

And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.

Luke Chapter 19:41

And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it,

Luke Chapter 19:42

Saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes.

Luke Chapter 19:43

For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side,

Luke Chapter 19:44

And shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another; because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.

Luke Chapter 19:45

And he went into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold therein, and them that bought;

Luke Chapter 19:46

Saying unto them, It is written, My house is the house of prayer: but ye have made it a den of thieves.

Luke Chapter 19:47

And he taught daily in the temple. But the chief priests and the scribes and the chief of the people sought to destroy him,

Luke Chapter 19:48

And could not find what they might do: for all the people were very attentive to hear him.

Luke Chapter 20:1

And it came to pass, that on one of those days, as he taught the people in the temple, and preached the gospel, the chief priests and the scribes came upon him with the elders,

Luke Chapter 20:2

And spake unto him, saying, Tell us, by what authority doest thou these things? or who is he that gave thee this authority?

Luke Chapter 20:3

And he answered and said unto them, I will also ask you one thing; and answer me:

Luke Chapter 20:4

The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or of men?

Luke Chapter 20:5

And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say, Why then believed ye him not?

Luke Chapter 20:6

But and if we say, Of men; all the people will stone us: for they be persuaded that John was a prophet.

Luke Chapter 20:7

And they answered, that they could not tell whence it was.

Luke Chapter 20:8

And Jesus said unto them, Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.

Luke Chapter 20:9

Then began he to speak to the people this parable; A certain man planted a vineyard, and let it forth to husbandmen, and went into a far country for a long time.

Luke Chapter 20:10

And at the season he sent a servant to the husbandmen, that they should give him of the fruit of the vineyard: but the husbandmen beat him, and sent him away empty.

Luke Chapter 20:11

And again he sent another servant: and they beat him also, and entreated him shamefully, and sent him away empty.

Luke Chapter 20:12

And again he sent a third: and they wounded him also, and cast him out.

Luke Chapter 20:13

Then said the lord of the vineyard, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son: it may be they will reverence him when they see him.

Luke Chapter 20:14

But when the husbandmen saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir: come, let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.

Luke Chapter 20:15

So they cast him out of the vineyard, and killed him. What therefore shall the lord of the vineyard do unto them?

Luke Chapter 20:16

He shall come and destroy these husbandmen, and shall give the vineyard to others. And when they heard it, they said, God forbid.

Luke Chapter 20:17

And he beheld them, and said, What is this then that is written, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner?

Luke Chapter 20:18

Whosoever shall fall upon that stone shall be broken; but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.

Luke Chapter 20:19

And the chief priests and the scribes the same hour sought to lay hands on him; and they feared the people: for they perceived that he had spoken this parable against them.

Luke Chapter 20:20

And they watched him, and sent forth spies, which should feign themselves just men, that they might take hold of his words, that so they might deliver him unto the power and authority of the governor.

Luke Chapter 20:21

And they asked him, saying, Master, we know that thou sayest and teachest rightly, neither acceptest thou the person of any, but teachest the way of God truly:

Luke Chapter 20:22

Is it lawful for us to give tribute unto Caesar, or no?

Luke Chapter 20:23

But he perceived their craftiness, and said unto them, Why tempt ye me?

Luke Chapter 20:24

Shew me a penny. Whose image and superscription hath it? They answered and said, Caesar's.

Luke Chapter 20:25

And he said unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which be Caesar's, and unto God the things which be God's.

Luke Chapter 20:26

And they could not take hold of his words before the people: and they marvelled at his answer, and held their peace.

Luke Chapter 20:27

Then came to him certain of the Sadducees, which deny that there is any resurrection; and they asked him,

Luke Chapter 20:28

Saying, Master, Moses wrote unto us, If any man's brother die, having a wife, and he die without children, that his brother should take his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.

Luke Chapter 20:29

There were therefore seven brethren: and the first took a wife, and died without children.

Luke Chapter 20:30

And the second took her to wife, and he died childless.

Luke Chapter 20:31

And the third took her; and in like manner the seven also: and they left no children, and died.

Luke Chapter 20:32

Last of all the woman died also.

Luke Chapter 20:33

Therefore in the resurrection whose wife of them is she? for seven had her to wife.

Luke Chapter 20:34

And Jesus answering said unto them, The children of this world marry, and are given in marriage:

Luke Chapter 20:35

But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage:

Luke Chapter 20:36

Neither can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels; and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection.

Luke Chapter 20:37

Now that the dead are raised, even Moses shewed at the bush, when he calleth the Lord the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.

Luke Chapter 20:38

For he is not a God of the dead, but of the living: for all live unto him.

Luke Chapter 20:39

Then certain of the scribes answering said, Master, thou hast well said.

Luke Chapter 20:40

And after that they durst not ask him any question at all.

Luke Chapter 20:41

And he said unto them, How say they that Christ is David's son?

Luke Chapter 20:42

And David himself saith in the book of Psalms, The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand,

Luke Chapter 20:43

Till I make thine enemies thy footstool.

Luke Chapter 20:44

David therefore calleth him Lord, how is he then his son?

Luke Chapter 20:45

Then in the audience of all the people he said unto his disciples,

Luke Chapter 20:46

Beware of the scribes, which desire to walk in long robes, and love greetings in the markets, and the highest seats in the synagogues, and the chief rooms at feasts;

Luke Chapter 20:47

Which devour widows' houses, and for a shew make long prayers: the same shall receive greater damnation.

Luke Chapter 21:1

And he looked up, and saw the rich men casting their gifts into the treasury.

Luke Chapter 21:2

And he saw also a certain poor widow casting in thither two mites.

Luke Chapter 21:3

And he said, Of a truth I say unto you, that this poor widow hath cast in more than they all:

Luke Chapter 21:4

For all these have of their abundance cast in unto the offerings of God: but she of her penury hath cast in all the living that she had.

Luke Chapter 21:5

And as some spake of the temple, how it was adorned with goodly stones and gifts, he said,

Luke Chapter 21:6

As for these things which ye behold, the days will come, in the which there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.

Luke Chapter 21:7

And they asked him, saying, Master, but when shall these things be? and what sign will there be when these things shall come to pass?

Luke Chapter 21:8

And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them.

Luke Chapter 21:9

But when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified: for these things must first come to pass; but the end is not by and by.

Luke Chapter 21:10

Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom:

Luke Chapter 21:11

And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.

Luke Chapter 21:12

But before all these, they shall lay their hands on you, and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for my name's sake.

Luke Chapter 21:13

And it shall turn to you for a testimony.

Luke Chapter 21:14

Settle it therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before what ye shall answer:

Luke Chapter 21:15

For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist.

Luke Chapter 21:16

And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death.

Luke Chapter 21:17

And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake.

Luke Chapter 21:18

But there shall not an hair of your head perish.

Luke Chapter 21:19

In your patience possess ye your souls.

Luke Chapter 21:20

And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh.

Luke Chapter 21:21

Then let them which are in Judaea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto.

Luke Chapter 21:22

For these be the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.

Luke Chapter 21:23

But woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck, in those days! for there shall be great distress in the land, and wrath upon this people.

Luke Chapter 21:24

And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.

Luke Chapter 21:25

And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;

Luke Chapter 21:26

Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.

Luke Chapter 21:27

And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.

Luke Chapter 21:28

And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.

Luke Chapter 21:29

And he spake to them a parable; Behold the fig tree, and all the trees;

Luke Chapter 21:30

When they now shoot forth, ye see and know of your own selves that summer is now nigh at hand.

Luke Chapter 21:31

So likewise ye, when ye see these things come to pass, know ye that the kingdom of God is nigh at hand.

Luke Chapter 21:32

Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all be fulfilled.

Luke Chapter 21:33

Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.

Luke Chapter 21:34

And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares.

Luke Chapter 21:35

For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth.

Luke Chapter 21:36

Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.

Luke Chapter 21:37

And in the day time he was teaching in the temple; and at night he went out, and abode in the mount that is called the mount of Olives.

Luke Chapter 21:38

And all the people came early in the morning to him in the temple, for to hear him.

Luke Chapter 22:1

Now the feast of unleavened bread drew nigh, which is called the Passover.

Luke Chapter 22:2

And the chief priests and scribes sought how they might kill him; for they feared the people.

Luke Chapter 22:3

Then entered Satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve.

Luke Chapter 22:4

And he went his way, and communed with the chief priests and captains, how he might betray him unto them.

Luke Chapter 22:5

And they were glad, and covenanted to give him money.

Luke Chapter 22:6

And he promised, and sought opportunity to betray him unto them in the absence of the multitude.

Luke Chapter 22:7

Then came the day of unleavened bread, when the passover must be killed.

Luke Chapter 22:8

And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare us the passover, that we may eat.

Luke Chapter 22:9

And they said unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare?

Luke Chapter 22:10

And he said unto them, Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall a man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house where he entereth in.

Luke Chapter 22:11

And ye shall say unto the goodman of the house, The Master saith unto thee, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples?

Luke Chapter 22:12

And he shall shew you a large upper room furnished: there make ready.

Luke Chapter 22:13

And they went, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the passover.

Luke Chapter 22:14

And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him.

Luke Chapter 22:15

And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer:

Luke Chapter 22:16

For I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.

Luke Chapter 22:17

And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, Take this, and divide it among yourselves:

Luke Chapter 22:18

For I say unto you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall come.

Luke Chapter 22:19

And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me.

Luke Chapter 22:20

Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you.

Luke Chapter 22:21

But, behold, the hand of him that betrayeth me is with me on the table.

Luke Chapter 22:22

And truly the Son of man goeth, as it was determined: but woe unto that man by whom he is betrayed!

Luke Chapter 22:23

And they began to enquire among themselves, which of them it was that should do this thing.

Luke Chapter 22:24

And there was also a strife among them, which of them should be accounted the greatest.

Luke Chapter 22:25

And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and they that exercise authority upon them are called benefactors.

Luke Chapter 22:26

But ye shall not be so: but he that is greatest among you, let him be as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve.

Luke Chapter 22:27

For whether is greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? is not he that sitteth at meat? but I am among you as he that serveth.

Luke Chapter 22:28

Ye are they which have continued with me in my temptations.

Luke Chapter 22:29

And I appoint unto you a kingdom, as my Father hath appointed unto me;

Luke Chapter 22:30

That ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

Luke Chapter 22:31

And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat:

Luke Chapter 22:32

But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.

Luke Chapter 22:33

And he said unto him, Lord, I am ready to go with thee, both into prison, and to death.

Luke Chapter 22:34

And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me.

Luke Chapter 22:35

And he said unto them, When I sent you without purse, and scrip, and shoes, lacked ye any thing? And they said, Nothing.

Luke Chapter 22:36

Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.

Luke Chapter 22:37

For I say unto you, that this that is written must yet be accomplished in me, And he was reckoned among the transgressors: for the things concerning me have an end.

Luke Chapter 22:38

And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords. And he said unto them, It is enough.

Luke Chapter 22:39

And he came out, and went, as he was wont, to the mount of Olives; and his disciples also followed him.

Luke Chapter 22:40

And when he was at the place, he said unto them, Pray that ye enter not into temptation.

Luke Chapter 22:41

And he was withdrawn from them about a stone's cast, and kneeled down, and prayed,

Luke Chapter 22:42

Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.

Luke Chapter 22:43

And there appeared an angel unto him from heaven, strengthening him.

Luke Chapter 22:44

And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground.

Luke Chapter 22:45

And when he rose up from prayer, and was come to his disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow,

Luke Chapter 22:46

And said unto them, Why sleep ye? rise and pray, lest ye enter into temptation.

Luke Chapter 22:47

And while he yet spake, behold a multitude, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them, and drew near unto Jesus to kiss him.

Luke Chapter 22:48

But Jesus said unto him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss?

Luke Chapter 22:49

When they which were about him saw what would follow, they said unto him, Lord, shall we smite with the sword?

Luke Chapter 22:50

And one of them smote the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear.

Luke Chapter 22:51

And Jesus answered and said, Suffer ye thus far. And he touched his ear, and healed him.

Luke Chapter 22:52

Then Jesus said unto the chief priests, and captains of the temple, and the elders, which were come to him, Be ye come out, as against a thief, with swords and staves?

Luke Chapter 22:53

When I was daily with you in the temple, ye stretched forth no hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.

Luke Chapter 23:1

And the whole multitude of them arose, and led him unto Pilate.

Luke Chapter 23:2

And they began to accuse him, saying, We found this fellow perverting the nation, and forbidding to give tribute to Caesar, saying that he himself is Christ a King.

Luke Chapter 23:3

And Pilate asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answered him and said, Thou sayest it.

Luke Chapter 23:4

Then said Pilate to the chief priests and to the people, I find no fault in this man.

Luke Chapter 23:5

And they were the more fierce, saying, He stirreth up the people, teaching throughout all Jewry, beginning from Galilee to this place.

Luke Chapter 23:6

When Pilate heard of Galilee, he asked whether the man were a Galilaean.

Luke Chapter 23:7

And as soon as he knew that he belonged unto Herod's jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who himself also was at Jerusalem at that time.

Luke Chapter 23:8

And when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceeding glad: for he was desirous to see him of a long season, because he had heard many things of him; and he hoped to have seen some miracle done by him.

Luke Chapter 23:9

Then he questioned with him in many words; but he answered him nothing.

Luke Chapter 23:10

And the chief priests and scribes stood and vehemently accused him.

Luke Chapter 23:11

And Herod with his men of war set him at nought, and mocked him, and arrayed him in a gorgeous robe, and sent him again to Pilate.

Luke Chapter 23:12

And the same day Pilate and Herod were made friends together: for before they were at enmity between themselves.

Luke Chapter 23:13

And Pilate, when he had called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people,

Luke Chapter 23:14

Said unto them, Ye have brought this man unto me, as one that perverteth the people: and, behold, I, having examined him before you, have found no fault in this man touching those things whereof ye accuse him:

Luke Chapter 23:15

No, nor yet Herod: for I sent you to him; and, lo, nothing worthy of death is done unto him.

Luke Chapter 23:16

I will therefore chastise him, and release him.

Luke Chapter 23:17

For of necessity he must release one unto them at the feast.)

Luke Chapter 23:18

And they cried out all at once, saying, Away with this man, and release unto us Barabbas:

Luke Chapter 23:19

Who for a certain sedition made in the city, and for murder, was cast into prison.)

Luke Chapter 23:20

Pilate therefore, willing to release Jesus, spake again to them.

Luke Chapter 23:21

But they cried, saying, Crucify him, crucify him.

Luke Chapter 23:22

And he said unto them the third time, Why, what evil hath he done? I have found no cause of death in him: I will therefore chastise him, and let him go.

Luke Chapter 23:23

And they were instant with loud voices, requiring that he might be crucified. And the voices of them and of the chief priests prevailed.

Luke Chapter 23:24

And Pilate gave sentence that it should be as they required.

Luke Chapter 23:25

And he released unto them him that for sedition and murder was cast into prison, whom they had desired; but he delivered Jesus to their will.

Luke Chapter 23:26

And as they led him away, they laid hold upon one Simon, a Cyrenian, coming out of the country, and on him they laid the cross, that he might bear it after Jesus.

Luke Chapter 23:27

And there followed him a great company of people, and of women, which also bewailed and lamented him.

Luke Chapter 23:28

But Jesus turning unto them said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children.

Luke Chapter 23:29

For, behold, the days are coming, in the which they shall say, Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that never bare, and the paps which never gave suck.

Luke Chapter 23:30

Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and to the hills, Cover us.

Luke Chapter 23:31

For if they do these things in a green tree, what shall be done in the dry?

Luke Chapter 23:32

And there were also two other, malefactors, led with him to be put to death.

Luke Chapter 23:33

And when they were come to the place, which is called Calvary, there they crucified him, and the malefactors, one on the right hand, and the other on the left.

Luke Chapter 23:34

Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.

Luke Chapter 23:35

And the people stood beholding. And the rulers also with them derided him, saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if he be Christ, the chosen of God.

Luke Chapter 23:36

And the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him, and offering him vinegar,

Luke Chapter 23:37

And saying, If thou be the king of the Jews, save thyself.

Luke Chapter 23:38

And a superscription also was written over him in letters of Greek, and Latin, and Hebrew, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

Luke Chapter 23:39

And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be Christ, save thyself and us.

Luke Chapter 23:40

But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation?

Luke Chapter 23:41

And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss.

Luke Chapter 23:42

And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom.

Luke Chapter 23:43

And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.

Luke Chapter 23:44

And it was about the sixth hour, and there was a darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour.

Luke Chapter 23:45

And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst.

Luke Chapter 23:46

And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost.

Luke Chapter 23:47

Now when the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, Certainly this was a righteous man.

Luke Chapter 23:48

And all the people that came together to that sight, beholding the things which were done, smote their breasts, and returned.

Luke Chapter 23:49

And all his acquaintance, and the women that followed him from Galilee, stood afar off, beholding these things.

Luke Chapter 23:50

And, behold, there was a man named Joseph, a counsellor; and he was a good man, and a just:

Luke Chapter 23:51

The same had not consented to the counsel and deed of them;) he was of Arimathaea, a city of the Jews: who also himself waited for the kingdom of God.

Luke Chapter 23:52

This man went unto Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus.

Luke Chapter 23:53

And he took it down, and wrapped it in linen, and laid it in a sepulchre that was hewn in stone, wherein never man before was laid.

Luke Chapter 24:1

Now upon the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they came unto the sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain others with them.

Luke Chapter 24:2

And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre.

Luke Chapter 24:3

And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus.

Luke Chapter 24:4

And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in shining garments:

Luke Chapter 24:5

And as they were afraid, and bowed down their faces to the earth, they said unto them, Why seek ye the living among the dead?

Luke Chapter 24:6

He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you when he was yet in Galilee,

Luke Chapter 24:7

Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.

Luke Chapter 24:8

And they remembered his words,

Luke Chapter 24:9

And returned from the sepulchre, and told all these things unto the eleven, and to all the rest.

Luke Chapter 24:10

It was Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary the mother of James, and other women that were with them, which told these things unto the apostles.

Luke Chapter 24:11

And their words seemed to them as idle tales, and they believed them not.

Luke Chapter 24:12

Then arose Peter, and ran unto the sepulchre; and stooping down, he beheld the linen clothes laid by themselves, and departed, wondering in himself at that which was come to pass.

Luke Chapter 24:13

And, behold, two of them went that same day to a village called Emmaus, which was from Jerusalem about threescore furlongs.

Luke Chapter 24:14

And they talked together of all these things which had happened.

Luke Chapter 24:15

And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and reasoned, Jesus himself drew near, and went with them.

Luke Chapter 24:16

But their eyes were holden that they should not know him.

Luke Chapter 24:17

And he said unto them, What manner of communications are these that ye have one to another, as ye walk, and are sad?

Luke Chapter 24:18

And the one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answering said unto him, Art thou only a stranger in Jerusalem, and hast not known the things which are come to pass there in these days?

Luke Chapter 24:19

And he said unto them, What things? And they said unto him, Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people:

Luke Chapter 24:20

And how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him to be condemned to death, and have crucified him.

Luke Chapter 24:21

But we trusted that it had been he which should have redeemed Israel: and beside all this, to day is the third day since these things were done.

Luke Chapter 24:22

Yea, and certain women also of our company made us astonished, which were early at the sepulchre;

Luke Chapter 24:23

And when they found not his body, they came, saying, that they had also seen a vision of angels, which said that he was alive.

Luke Chapter 24:24

And certain of them which were with us went to the sepulchre, and found it even so as the women had said: but him they saw not.

Luke Chapter 24:25

Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken:

Luke Chapter 24:26

Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory?

Luke Chapter 24:27

And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.

Luke Chapter 24:28

And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they went: and he made as though he would have gone further.

Luke Chapter 24:29

But they constrained him, saying, Abide with us: for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent. And he went in to tarry with them.

Luke Chapter 24:30

And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and blessed it, and brake, and gave to them.

Luke Chapter 24:31

And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight.

Luke Chapter 24:32

And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures?

Luke Chapter 24:33

And they rose up the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and them that were with them,

Luke Chapter 24:34

Saying, The Lord is risen indeed, and hath appeared to Simon.

Luke Chapter 24:35

And they told what things were done in the way, and how he was known of them in breaking of bread.

Luke Chapter 24:36

And as they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.

Luke Chapter 24:37

But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they had seen a spirit.

Luke Chapter 24:38

And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled? and why do thoughts arise in your hearts?

Luke Chapter 24:39

Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have.

Luke Chapter 24:40

And when he had thus spoken, he shewed them his hands and his feet.

Luke Chapter 24:41

And while they yet believed not for joy, and wondered, he said unto them, Have ye here any meat?

Luke Chapter 24:42

And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish, and of an honeycomb.

Luke Chapter 24:43

And he took it, and did eat before them.

Luke Chapter 24:44

And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.

Luke Chapter 24:45

Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures,

Luke Chapter 24:46

And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day:

Luke Chapter 24:47

And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

Luke Chapter 24:48

And ye are witnesses of these things.

Luke Chapter 24:49

And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.

Luke Chapter 24:50

And he led them out as far as to Bethany, and he lifted up his hands, and blessed them.

Luke Chapter 24:51

And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he was parted from them, and carried up into heaven.

Luke Chapter 24:52

And they worshipped him, and returned to Jerusalem with great joy:

Luke Chapter 24:53

And were continually in the temple, praising and blessing God. Amen.
